EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE QUICK START PROCEDURES
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The
EVAL-AD5696RSDZ
evaluation board uses the
ACE
evaluation software, a desktop software application that allows
the evaluation and control of multiple evaluation systems.
The
ACE
installer installs the necessary SDP drivers and the
Microsoft® .NET Framework 4 by default. The
ACE
software is
available for download from the
EVAL-AD5696RSDZ
product
page, and must be installed before connecting the
SDP
board to
the USB port of the PC, to ensure that the
SDP
board is
recognized when it connects to the PC. For full instructions on
how to install and use this software, see the
ACE
software page
on the Analog Devices website.
After the installation is finished, the
EVAL-AD5696RSDZ
evaluation board plug in appears when the
ACE
software is
opened.

1.
Connect the evaluation board to the
